I hunt very thick cover. We have alot of thorn undergrowth around here. I just try and get a setup in the farm country, which we have many. We used to have 2 amazing beagles, mother and daughter. The daughter got hit by a car though, and we haven't had time to train another. The mother is in tip=top shape and is doing excellent. We can get 5 per day in MI. It is kinda not enough in good areas, but that way we don't over hunt them.
